Charge

Investigate the instructions for recording relationships in RDA.
Consider the structure of elements for relationships and the instructions for recording relationships. Draft instructions for recording structured descriptions of relationships, such as contents notes and accompanying material statements, taking into account the issues raised in the JSC Representative's discussion paper on this topic (CC:DA/JSC Rep/JCA/2011/5).

One of the tools used by Tom Delsey during the development of RDA was what he called “strawman proposals.” These were draft RDA instructions, designed to test certain principles or assumptions. They provided sufficient detail to enable reviewers to evaluate and criticize the approach and, in the process, to refine the preliminary ideas.

This appendix is a strawman proposal containing possible revisions to the instructions on recording relationships in Section 8 of RDA, which deals with relationships between instances of the FRBR group 1 entities. The proposal does not include the entire text of Section 8, but does include the instructions on recording the relationships, as well as all of the current examples.

The proposed additions and changes are highlighted. Deletions are not indicated (except in the case of one set of examples noted in #5 below).

This proposal is designed to illustrate and test an approach to expanding the general instructions on recording relationships, and to adding instructions on recording structured descriptions of certain specific relationships. This approach includes the following provisions:

In the general guidelines (Chapter 24), add more detailed instructions about recording structured and unstructured descriptions, giving the examples of each following the instructions.

The general guidelines for structured descriptions call for recording appropriate elements from chapter 6 or chapter 2, and including an appropriate relationship designator.

In subsequent chapters, repeat the basic instructions for each of the applicable conventions for recording relationships (identifiers, authorized access points (in chapters 25 and 26 only), structured descriptions, and unstructured descriptions), modified for the scope of each chapter. Place the examples for each convention following the appropriate instruction.

Add instructions for recording specific types of structured descriptions where it seems appropriate.

The instructions for structured descriptions of related works and expressions call for recording elements from Chapter 6. This means that the primary identifying element will be the preferred title, rather than the title proper. (Note that expressions are named using the preferred title of the work; there is no element for title of expression.) This is perhaps the most controversial aspect of the strawman proposal. In the case of contents notes, we are suggesting that the distinction between the description of a work and the description of a manifestation cannot easily be based on any distinction between different sorts of parts, but can be based on what elements are included in the structured description. In the proposed 25.1.1.3.3.1, the examples have been marked to show the recording of the name of the author (presumably the preferred name) and the preferred title of each part, instead of title proper and statement of responsibility.

As noted, a specific instruction is proposed for “Contents of the Work” at 25.1.1.3.3.1. Specific instructions might be added for other types of relationships. The examples suggest some possibilities. The relationship designators in Appendix J.2 offer a more complete list of possible relationships. In most cases, the preferred title is the primary identifying element for the related work; this could be covered in 25.1.1.3.3 and it would not be necessary to provide specific instructions. However, there may be other cases in which such instructions might be useful. Note that the proposed instructions for contents of the work provide keywords that will make it much easier for these instructions to be found in the Toolkit.

No instructions for specific types of structured descriptions have been proposed here for Chapter 26, Related Expressions. As above, general instructions are provided, and the examples may suggest specific relationships that might be worth instructions.

Three specific sets of instructions have been suggested for structured descriptions of related manifestations: Contents of the Manifestation (27.1.1.3.2.1), Host for the Manifestation (27.1.1.3.2.2), and Accompanying Manifestation (27.1.1.3.2.3). The first is comparable to Contents of the Work, but is based on the title proper and statement of responsibility, rather than the preferred name and preferred title. The second is the reciprocal part-to-whole relationship; the proposed text is related specifically to analytical descriptions, and includes mention of the Number of the Part of the Work.

For Accompanying Manifestation, the proposal suggests recording the extent and any other elements considered important for identification. There is an alternative to use a word or phrase indicating the nature of the accompanying manifestation, rather than the carrier type term, as the unit — e.g., 1 teacher’s edition, rather than 1 volume. This reflects both AACR2 and ISBD practice, and should allow such structured descriptions to be encoded in 300 $e in MARC 21.

No instructions for specific types of structured descriptions have been proposed here for Chapter 28, Related Items. As above, general instructions are provided, and the examples may suggest specific relationships that might be worth instructions.

As noted, the instructions could be expanded to cover all of the various relationships whose designators are defined in Appendix J. It is worthwhile to consider additional instructions for specific relationships; however, it is unlikely that most of the designations would require specific instructions.

Record the relationship between a work, expression, manifestation, or item and a related work, expression, manifestation, or item
using one or more of the conventions described under 24.4.1 (identifier), 24.4.2 (authorized access point), or 24.4.3 (description), as applicable.

Record an appropriate relationship designator (see 24.5 ) to indicate the nature of the relationship more specifically than is indicated by the defined scope of the relationship element itself.

Record the numbering of a part within a larger work (see 24.6 ) if applicable and if it is considered to be important.
For guidelines on using the authorized access point representing a related work or expression to generate a see also reference, see Appendix E (E.1.3.3 ).

24.4.1 Identifier for the Related Work, Expression, Manifestation, or Item

Provide an identifier for the related work, expression, manifestation, or item, formulated according to the instructions given under 6.8 (identifiers for works), 6.13 (identifiers for expressions), 2.15 (identifiers for manifestations), or 2.19 (identifiers for items), as applicable.

24.4.2 Authorized Access Point Representing the Related Work or Expression

Provide an authorized access point representing the related work or expression constructed according to the guidelines and instructions given under 6.27.1–6.27.2 (authorized access point representing a work or part of a work) or 6.27.3 (authorized access point representing an expression), as applicable.

24.4.3 Description of the Related Work, Expression, Manifestation, or Item

Provide a description of the related work, expression, manifestation, or item in one or other of the following forms, as appropriate:
a) a structured description (see 24.4.3.1 )
b) an unstructured description (see 24.4.3.2 ).

Although the 1st sentence is straight from RDA, I find the phrase "... in one or other..." to be awkward. Should it be "one or *the* other"? - Glennan (PCC), 3/29/13

24.4.3.1 Structured Description

Provide a full or partial description of the related resource using appropriate elements defined in chapter 6 (for related works and expressions) or chapter 2 (for related manifestations and items). Record the elements in the same order of elements that is used for the resource being described. Apply the instructions for recording those elements, as applicable.

Indicate the specific nature of the relationship by including an appropriate relationship designator (see 24.5 ).

Why does the RDA instructions for structured description specify to write relationship designators such as “contains (work),” “expanded version of (expression),” “reprint of (manifestation)” “facsimile of (item)” but none of the examples include the words “(work),” “(manifestation),” “(expression),” and “(item)” in the relationship designators? Will the examples be revised/corrected later-– Dominique Bourassa, CC:DA, March 15, 2013.

I'd prefer a rephrasing of the 2nd sentence above to eliminate two uses of the term "elements" -- can we just remove the 2nd occurrence so the sentence would read: "Record the elements in the same order that is used for the resource being described." - Glennan (PCC), 3/29/13

24.4.3.2 Unstructured Description

Provide a full or partial description of the related resource written as a sentence or paragraph. Include terminology that indicates the specific nature of the relationship, if appropriate.

As I mentioned at Midwinter, I don't think these examples are descriptions of works, if they include manifestation level elements.

26.1.1.3.1 Identifier for the Related Expression

Record an identifier for the related expression, formulated according to the instructions at 6.13 (identifiers for expressions).
Indicate the specific nature of the relationship by including an appropriate relationships designator (see 24.5 ).

Aren't most of the above access point examples incomplete, because they lack one of the following (see RDA 6.27.3): i) the content type (see 6.9); ii) the date of the expression (see 6.10); iii) the language of the expression (see 6.11); and/or iv) another distinguishing characteristic of the expression (see 6.12). I may be missing something completely obvious. -- Francis Lapka, 3/26/2013

I think Francis is right. That would mean adding the date to examples 1-2 & "English" to example 3. The 4th example should be fine. I'm a bit flummoxed about what to add to the 5th example, since there are different titles involved; perhaps the date? For the final two examples, is it obvious that these are expression relationships? - Glennan (PCC) 3/29/13

26.1.1.3.3 Structured Description of the Related Expression

Record a full or partial description of the related expression using appropriate elements defined in chapter 6. Record the elements in the same order of elements that is used for the resource being described. Apply the instructions for recording those elements, as applicable.

Indicate the specific nature of the relationship by including an appropriate relationships designator (see 24.5 ).

Should there be an instruction 26.1.1.3.3.1 (similar to 25.1.1.3.3.1. Contents of the Work and 27.1.1.3.2.1. Contains of the Manifestation) where RDA would tell the user to record the relationship designator “contains (expression) see J.3.4.”? It would explain what do to if we have, for example, an anthology of plays translated into French.

Should there also be an instruction 26.1.1.3.3.2 (similar to 27.1.1.3.2.2. Host for the manifestation) where RDA would tell the user to record the relationship designator “contained in (expression) see J.3.4.? --Dominique Bourassa, CC:DA, March 11, 2013

Doesn't the recording of publication elements in the first example take this description beyond that for an expression? - Glennan (PCC) 3/29/13

Record additional elements for each part (e.g., other title information (see 2.3.4 ), statement of responsibility (see 2.4 ), duration (see 7.22 )), if considered important for identification.

In an analytical description (see 1.5.3 ), provide a structured description of the host for the manifestation by recording the title proper (see 2.3.2 ) and the numbering of the part within the host (see 24.6 ), if applicable. Record the relationship designator contained in (manifestation) (see J.4.4 ).

Record the relationship designator accompanied by (manifestation) (see J.4.5 ).
